More stuff for our next class

Hey, remember the dog license story and our research into gathering similar public records locally? Well, I’ve received some data! It’s from just one Westchester County town, but if you’re curious, check out what people in Greenburgh name their dogs (Excel format).

Also: our speaker next week, Caitlin Petre, will soon release a report about her research into news metrics. It will not be available to the public until May 7, but she has graciously allowed us a sneak peak. I’m posting the report on Blackboard (in Course Documents) in order to make sure it’s only students in our class who can access it. I don’t expect you to read the whole thing, but give it a skim in order to get an idea of what we’ll be talking about.
